Feelings on Halloween

I actually like being in the DR and not the USA for Halloween this year! I'm usually home alone while my now husband would be working. Being in the hotel business his shifts are usually until 11pm. :( Boo! The normal Halloween activity would happen at my parent's house in Charlotte, NC where I would hand out candy to the kids. Now that I live in Asheville, NC I was told not to open the door to the kids and turn out the lights! Last year was pretty boring being at home with no candy to pass out or just to eat myself!
Being in the DR I thought maybe we would even forget that it was Halloween on our honeymoon... yea right!!! This whole resort has gone nuts about Halloween! Even our cruise boat today had decorations like crazy and the crew had on costumes. I doubt I'll forget its Halloween... but if your going to go all crazy and decorate you should never forget about candy! I don't see candy anywhere around this resort! I need my sugar fix! :) I'm on the search.... don't forget about Game 3 tonight!! Go Yankees!

I'll Always Have The Motley Crew

As of October 24, 2009 my last name went from Motley to Ordan. Who would have thought that after being in a relationship for 5 years, engaged for 14 months and then saying "I Do" that you would accept what was going to happen. NOT TRUE!! I'm still having trouble letting go of the "Motley." My mother's speech at the wedding couldn't have said it better... "you will always have the Motley crew." Which brings me to another thought.. what about just hyphenating my last name to Motley-Ordan??? I can't do it! I would have the longest name ever! I don't even want to think about my children having to carry that around either. So after 5 days of marital bliss and still on my honeymoon I haven't been called "Mrs. Ordan" has of yet. I will be waiting.... until then I'm watching the Yankees kick some serious Philly butt!! Night!
